Abstrakt: | Antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacteria are emerging and spreading globally, threatening our ability to treat common infectious diseases. The development of new classes of antibiotics able to kill or inhibit the growth of such AMR bacteria through novel mechanisms of action is therefore urgently needed. Here, a new family of indole-containing arene ruthenium organometallic compounds are screened against several bacterial species and drug resistant strains. The most active complex [( p -cym)Ru(O-cyclohexyl- 1H -indole-2-carbothioate)Cl] ( 3 ) shows growth inhibition and bactericidal activity against different organisms ( Acinetobacter baumannii, Mycobacterium abscessus, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi and Escherichia coli ), demonstrating broad-spectrum inhibitory activity. Importantly, this compound series exhibits low toxicity against human cells. Owing to the novelty of the antibiotic family, their moderate cytotoxicity, and their inhibitory activity against Gram positive, Gram negative and acid-fast, antibiotic resistant microorganisms, this series shows significant promise for further development. Competing Interests: Nicolas Barry, Anaïs Pitto-Barry, Joan Soldevila-Barreda, and Jonathan Cox have patent #International PCT Application No. PCT/GB2021/050471 pending to Aston University and University of Bradford.
